Alpine A110 R Fernando Alonso

The French car manufacturer Alpine unveiled its new car with which it pays tribute to the Spanish Formula 1 driver Fernando Alonso. Following the recently introduced fastest model, the limited edition is called the Alpine A110 R Fernando Alonso.

Fernando Alonso’s Alpine A110 R is powered by a 1.8L 4-cylinder turbo gasoline engine with 300 hp (221 kW) and 251 lb-ft (340 Nm) of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels via a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. The car is lighter compared to the standard A110 R model, but also closer to the ground. It reaches 62 mph in 3.9 seconds with a top speed of 177 mph (285 km/h).

The limited edition will be produced in 32 examples, which is the number of victories achieved by the Spanish driver Fernando Alonso in Formula 1. As a Renault driver, he was a two-time Formula 1 champion. Each car will be finished in the matte blue color that adorns Alpina’s Formula 1 car this season. In addition to the serial number plate (00/32) and Alonso’s signature in several places, the driver’s sun visor will feature the drivers’ motto: “There are more paths to the top of the mountain.”

When it comes to price, the limited edition A110 R isn’t cheap. Each car costs 148,000 euros, which is 43,000 euros more than the standard A110 R, and the price includes a replica of Alonso’s helmet.

2022 Alpine A110 E-ternity

At the beginning of 2021, the French car manufacturer Alpine announced that it will stop producing cars with internal combustion engines by 2030. The first step towards that goal is the 2022 Alpine A110 E-ternity prototype, which will be unveiled at the upcoming French Formula 1 Grand Prix.

The A110 E-ternity is based on the A110 Coupé. It is powered by a modified electric motor with 240 hp (176 kW) and 221 lb-ft (300 Nm) of torque. That’s enough power to propel it to 62 mph in 4.5 seconds with a top speed of 99 mph (160 km/h), with a range of up to 260 miles (420 km). The same engine, but with 220 hp (160 kW), powers the recently launched Renault Mégana E-Tech.

The all-electric A110 is equipped with 12 battery modules, increasing the weight to 1,378 kg (3,037 lbs), 258 kg more than the conventional model. Also, compared to the A110, the EV differs by its removable roof made of recycled carbon, but also by its innovative infotainment screen located on the dashboard in front of the driver. The rest of the design is retained from the conventional model.

Alpine has announced a new all-electric crossover and hatchback, but they won’t be arriving anytime soon.
